I saw a production of it at Brown University and fell in love with the show. Great music and I love the strangeness of it. I would have killed to the Off-Bway production...Kerry Butler and my girl, Kathy Brier. :)

Do not put your faith in a cape and a hood.
They will not protect you the way that they should.

Posted: 6/25/04 at 6:50pmThe entire score of this show is just outstanding. If I had a say...which I clearly don't nor mostly likely ever will..they would put it on Broadway.
You've gotta have heart AND music

Posted: 6/25/04 at 7:02pmExcellent show! One of the best in years and certainly worthy of a Broadway run!

Posted: 6/25/04 at 7:17pmI saw BatBoy OffBroadway twice and loved it. I think its charm comes from the way it is so simple in certain departments and so complex in others. Just listen to "Comfort and Joy", its a fantastic show.
And hang on, when did you win the discus?

I have the cast recording and the script, and I am inhumanly disappointed that I missed it when it was Off-Broadway.
I'm going to try and persuade my high school to do a production of it. Hopefully I will be successful.

YAY BATBOY!
Bat Boy is fantastic. Musically it is very interesting and fun and as far as a plot, you can't get more interesting. The writers are some of the most exciting new writers in musical theatre and will soon be responsible for the new Legally Blonde musical.
bigkrak didn't like the musical for some reason...clearly she doesn't have any taste, but I guess to each his own. I loved it, and it's clear it will do very well when it hits Broadway after the London run.
